Huddersfield Town Under 18s chalked up a seventh win in eight games to maintain their push for another Professional Development League II play-off appearance.

With lead coach Tony Carss still on his month’s secondment to the first team, Leigh Bromby presided over the 5-2 win against Bristol City at PPG Canalside.

While Nottingham Forest are clear at the top of the PDL II North section, Town are third, two points behind Sheffield United with a game in hand.

They visit Watford on Saturday (10.30), and Bromby is expecting a tough test from the South section’s second-placed side, explaining: “Watford are higher up their table than Bristol City, so that’s an indication they will be stronger.

“I had a spell there as a player and always thought they had a fantastic academy which produced some great footballers.”

Town have seven regular-season fixtures remaining, including a home clash with Sheffield United, as they seek the top-two spot which would seal play-off qualification.

They fielded a young side against Bristol and included two trialists, left-back Spencer Myers from Everton and striker Javaan Campbell from Arsenal.
